Many millions of people lost their lives. Yet while the Rebellion has been intensely studied by scholars in China and elsewhere, we still know little of how individuals coped with these cataclysmic events. Drawing upon a rich array of primary sources, What Remains explores the issues that preoccupied Chinese and Western survivors. Individuals, families, and communities grappled with fundamental questions of loyalty and loss as they struggled to rebuild shattered cities, bury the dead, and make sense of the horrors that they had witnessed. Driven by compelling accounts of raw emotion and deep injury, What Remains opens a window to a world described by survivors themselves. This book transforms our understanding of China's 19th century and recontextualizes suffering and loss in China during the 20th century. 606 $aCollective memory$zChina$xHistory 607 $aChina$xHistory$yTaiping Rebellion, 1850-1864$xCasualties 607 $aChina$xHistory$yTaiping Rebellion, 1850-1864$xAtrocities 608 $aElectronic books. 615 0$aCollective memory$xHistory. 676 $a951/.034 700 $aMeyer-Fong$b Tobie S$g(Tobie Sarah)$01031389 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910463210103321 996 $aWhat remains$92448745 997 $aUNINA
